Welcome! I'm Pam Moore and I am so glad you stopped by my blog! I live in Boulder, Colorado with my husband, two little girls, and backyard chickens.

Whatevs... started as a single girl's triathlon blog in 2007, and though it has evolved to include topics like marriage and parenting over the years, it remains my little corner of the internet, where I write about anything that inspires me. My writing has been published on websites including Huffington Post, Scary Mommy, Mamalode, and In The Powder Room. My flash fiction stories have been twice short listed by the Mash Stories competition. I've also contributed to Colorado Runner Magazine and the HerStories anthology.
